Friday Night Football!

After school today we made a quick trip to Dothan to see the proofs from Julia's photo shoot a couple of weeks ago. There were some cute pictures, but overall I was a little disappointed. There weren't any very good pictures of her in her crown, but of course we bought some.

We made a stop at Moe's for dinner and then headed to Daleville to the ball game. Julia ate her entire quesadilla and then fell asleep sitting straight up in the truck!
Julia loved the football game. She said "football" over and over, did the touchdown signal when we scored without prompting, caught a football from the cheerleaders and then threw it to everybody, and drew a crowd while dancing to the band, all while wearing her sundress, pearls and big bow. A true Southern Belle in training! If she had that much fun in red and black I can't wait to see what she'll do in blue and orang!

(Mom made her dress, I wish I had gotten a better picture of it last night but she was BUSY as usual!)

Julia's First Day of "School"!

Since I'm "lucky" enough to have 1st block planning I was able to take Julia to her first day of "school" and go into work a little late today. We started the day off with a pancake breakfast. You can't learn on an empty stomach!
Then we took a few pictures on the front porch before heading to school!

This was the only picture I could grab of Julia before I left. I didn't want her to get too upset. Fortunately, she wasn't TOO upset, but this picture looks like she was! I stood outside the door for a minute and could hear her saying "Mamamama" but it was her "fake cry"!
Nana sent me this picture when she picked her up. I said she either played hard or cried hard and Nana said she played hard. She said she was asleep before she could even get her in her car seat!
After I got home from school Natalie and Harrison came over to play with Julia's new water table we got in Dothan Saturday night. Julia loved it and was SOAKED when she got done! Michael said she's not allowed to play with it when we have somewhere to go!
Stealing the ball from Harrison!

After Natalie and Harrison left I put Julia back in her school clothes and we ran up to church to take a picture in front of her school sign. I forgot to take it this morning and it HAD to be taken today! :)
I think Julia had a first day of school, we'll see what kind of report I get Thursday. If nothing else, it has definitely worn her out! She napped at Nana and Pop's and went to bed in her crib at 8:00 tonight with "only" about 25 minutes of crying!
